Answer: The answer is 1\dfrac{1}{12}~\textup{hours}.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the penguin nursery is open two times in a day, where the number of hours open at the noon and afternoon are respectively given by

t_n=\dfrac{2}{3}~\textup{hour},\\\\t_a=\dfrac{5}{12}~\textup{hour}.

Therefore, the total number of hours 't' penguin nursery open every day is given by

t=t_n+t_a=\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{5}{12}=\dfrac{8+5}{12}=\dfrac{13}{12}=1\dfrac{1}{12}~\textup{hour}.

Thus, the answer is

1\dfrac{1}{12}~\textup{hours}.

Which is a better deal 12.4 ounces for $4.99 or 21 ounces for $6.49?
ella [17]

Answer:

<em>Getting 21 ounces for $6.49 is a better deal!</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

4.99 / 12.4 = 0.402419...

6.49 / 21 = 0.30904...

0.4 is larger than 0.30 therefore 0.30 is less and a better deal.

Have an amazing day! ^-^

Alisiya [41]
The x-axis intercepts are the roots of the polynomial. So, the roots are x = - 2, x = - 1 and x = 3.

Therefore, the polynomial can be factored as:

(x - (-2)) * ( x - (-1) ) * (x - 3) = (x + 2)(x + 1)(x - 3).

Answer: (x + 2) (x + 1) (x - 3)
